Anyone else planning on taking a long break after Wano?

Discussion

I definitely I think a decent amount of my personal dissatisfaction with recent One Piece is the result of weekly reading fatigue. Not all of it, no amount of time will make me like the nika nika no mi, but a binge read would definitely be beneficial. It’s also been a while since I’ve read the parts of this series that I really love so I feel less connected to this arc’s big moments and less willing to tolerate its bullshit. Probably gonna have to stop reading and thinking about it for like two years and then reread the entire thing to reset my thoughts on the series lol.

No, after Wano is when I expect One Piece to go back to how good it was getting pre Wano

Let's pray that Elbaf saves us all (if that's even where we go next)

If next arc is Elbaf, yeah I'll take a break and let it pile up. It's pretty much fan consensus that it's the next island so if Oda really follows that then I don't think it can keep my interest week to week.

If next arc is anything else I'll read it.

You’d be picking the manga chapter up every week because you get to see your favorite characters fighting and getting screen time

The way it's been going I can't trust that Oda won't pack the next arc with as many characters as this one and end up with resultingly lesser screentime and lesser quality action/plot.

Depends on what the next arc is about. If it's something new then no, but if it's just another island they need to save I'm definitely taking a few months off.

I waiting on the war arc and a preparation arc for the war

We get to see the grand fleet and how strong they’ve gotten, Shanks and Mihawk getting screen time, Akainu getting angry at Luffy

It will be another 4th great ninja war just watch. There are just too many characters for it to be good.

Oda gives every character a backstory and makes everyone strong. Everyone gets there own fight. Characters will be defeated and some will die.

It will be longer than wano and there will be someone who is more unbeatable than Kaido.

I'm hoping for a short break in the story after Wano, something like long ring long land or even just some quality time on the Sunny where the primary focus is the Straw Hats and their interactions. I plan on taking a break anyway so I can reread all of Wano at my own pace, but if the story immediately goes into the next big arc after Wano, I'm making that break even longer.

Nah. It’s only 1 chapter a week.

That's part of the problem IMO. Many people are experiencing arc fatigue from how long Wano's been running with its one chapter a week pacing. I myself am gonna take a break to reread Wano, and after that I'm just gonna wait until I feel like reading One Piece again

Fairs. I know if i let it pile up I won’t touch it. I used to be up to date w my hero. Now I’m like 200 chapters behind.

One Piece is all I know I only break when Oda does. Eat piracy breathe meat

Depending on the end. If it ends now, I am taking a break until the end of series. If Kaido is about to awaken and show us what's up, I am staying.

It's one chapter a week. If it takes 7 mins to read a chapter and you sleep 8 hours that's like 0.1% of your time. Not a huge time commitment. No reason to stop.
